Valentine's Day
One version of the legend behind St. Valentine's Day portrays the saint as a churchman willing to marry active soldiers and their girls even though this was against Roman law. Because he was willing to die in the name of love, he became the patron saint of couples everywhere.
Today I embarked on my first journey underneath his happy gaze, and I couldn't be more content or more in love. I tried to plan a pretty elaborate day for my girlfriend and myself; I also tried to plan it around the fact that she has a test tomorrow morning. Well, at least I brought her flowers and took her to dinner.
In return she trashed my house, but at least it was in love. I find myself today as a firm believer in the wonders of Saint Valentine's Day and thankful for the chance to try and brighten the day of the one I love.
